The best thing to do is chop that off, and *then* treat the plant. Eliminate the majority, first.

With that many spider mites, you may be better off killing the plant outside because they WILL spread. Those bastards can survive neem oil, washing up liquid, you could probably throw them into space and they’d keep multiplying.

Just toss the plant. This is such a severe infestation of spider mites you may as well just buy a new plant. Lesson learned… be more proactive in pest management next time.

When you dispose of these plants please leave a note on them that says they’re infested with spider mites so no one takes them home.

I’m honestly quite a pro at removing spider mites from plants and ressurecting them. I’d genuinely recommend throwing this plant away and getting some predators for other plants in the vicinity

that plant is a gonner. Throw it out before those guys spread to your other plants. Though at those levels they almost certainly already have if there are any nearby, even if you don’t see them yet. I would treat any plant that were in the same room as this one by thoroughly spraying down the entire plant, top and bottom of leaves, in your shower. Then once they dry apply a treatment for spider mites- diatomaceous earth is one example.
